The Yak and Watusi are funny critters. If you walk out

into the field and walk straight toward them they just watch you. But if you try to sneak up on them and come at them from the side they will spook and take off. There is always a lead cow that makes the decisions for them. She will watch you closely and if you are trying to do something sneaky she will do a snuffing sound and take off with the rest of the herd behind her. On Kase's Yak the lead cow was off to the right and was watching them real close. She suspected something and was pawing the ground but wasn't quite spooked. At least until Kase fired the first shot.

A lot of animals do this. I have driven up 40 to 50 yards from coyotes, elk and other critters and as long as the truck is running they will just watch you closely. But if you turn the truck off they are gone.
